Venus Optics is the company behind Laowa lenses and I’ve been impressed by its somewhat oddball offerings over the years. There are conventional stills and cine lenses in the Laowa catalog but it’s the more esoteric options that catch the eye, like high-magnification macro and macro probe lenses, tilt/shift optics and even a fisheye zoom.
I’ve reviewed a few of these myself, including the Laowa 90mm f/2.8 2x Ultra Macro Apo, Laowa FFII TS 100mm f/2.8 Macro 1X and Laowa 8-15mm f/2.8 FF Zoom Fisheye.
